Dear all, As a follow-up to yesterdays email, could you be so kind to send any comments on the draft as soon as possible (by Thursday) or, alternatively indicate if you agree with the proposed letter? Thanks and kind regards, Bart On 1/16/12 5:56 PM, "Bart Boswinkel" <bart.boswinkel@icann.org> wrote: Dear all, Included is the draft for the letter to the Board on progress regarding the introduction of Single Character IDN TLDs as prepaerd by the drafting group. The letter addresses the following points per council meeting 20 December 2011: * Support for the introduction * Asking for clarification on: * timing of introduction * consultation of the SSAC, GAC and ALAC * issue of pictographic and alphabetic scripts. Moving forward As you may have noted the GNSO Council adopted the proposed “JIG letter” under the condition that the ccNSO would adopt the proposed letter as well. As this did not happen the GNSO will not submit the proposed letter to the Board. In order to move forward, Lesley will send the draft letter to the GNSO letter before any decision by ccNSO Council, with the intention to seek support from the GNSO Council for this letter, given the JIGF is a joint ccNSO-GNSO Working Group. Kind regards, Bart
